Ahu Te Pito Kura
What the experts agree on
Easter Island's most massive moai achievement: a nearly 10-meter giant successfully erected at Ahu Te Pito Kura, though its broken-necked twin lies facedown nearby—a striking testament to the islanders' ambitious stone-moving prowess.
“Beside Bahía La Pérouse, a nearly 10m-long moai lies facedown with its neck broken; it's the largest moai moved from Rano Raraku and erected on an ahu.”
